Bread, If (1971)
Key: :[F#] (w: David Gates)

INTRO:
[F#] [F#/F] [F#7] [B] [Bm] [F#] [Bm] [C#]

VERSE 1:
If a [F#] picture paints a [F#/F] thousand words
Then [F#7] why can't I paint [B] you
The [Bm] words will never [F#] show
The [Bm] you I've come to [C#] know

VERSE 2:
If a [F#] face could launch a [F#/F] thousand ships
Then [F#7] where am I to [B] go
There's [Bm] no one home but [F#] you
You're [Bm] all that's left me, [C#] too

CHORUS 1:
And [D#m] when my [A#] love for [F#] life is running [G#m7] dry
You [C#m6] come and [D#7] pour your [B] self on [C#] me

VERSE 3:
If a [F#] man could be two [F#/F] places
At one [F#7] time I'd be with [B] you
To-[Bm]-morrow and [F#] today
Be-[Bm]-side you all the [C#] way

VERSE 4:
If the [F#] world should stop re-[F#/F]-volving
Spinning [F#7] slowly down to [B] die
I'd [Bm] spend the end with [F#] you
And [Bm] when the world was [C#] through

CHORUS:
Then [D#m] one by [A#] one the [F#] stars would all go [G#m7] out
Then [C#m6] you and [D#7] I would [B] simply [Bm] fly [/F#] a-[F#]-way

OUTRO: [Bm] [Bm] [F# open]
